Competition Rule at Buffalo Raceway

Participants with the same surname (last name) will be limited per race to two separate pari-mutuel betting interests (i.e. drivers and trainers). If three trainers with the same surname (last name) are entered in a specific race, the trainer with the "latest" race date will be deemed ineligible to compete in the specific race. If one trainer and two drivers with the same surname (last name) are entered in a specific race, one of the two drivers must drive for the one trainer or both drivers will be deemed ineligible to compete in the specific race. If two trainers and one driver with the same surname are entered in a specific race, the one driver must drive for one of the two trainers or be deemed ineligible to compete in the specific race.

Buffalo Raceway has the sole right to establish a Competition Rule, and reserves the right to amend the Competiton Rule at any time, if management of Buffalo Raceway deems it is in the best interests of racing at Buffalo Raceway to do so.

The Competition Rule will generally not apply to the New York Sire Stakes or Excelsior Series unless management of Buffalo Raceway deems it is in the best interests of racing at Buffalo Raceway to apply the Competition Rule.
